[INTRO]
I am asking us to wake up, stand up, and fight. I am asking to dream the dreams that our ancestors gave up their lives for. We need to wake up before it's too late, and there won't be a tomorrow!
So, stand up, and let's make this world a better place for us all
[Verse 1]
My view from Mountain Top has been promised. The struggles of life have never been greater. The future of my people seems so dim. No love for the ghetto children. The road for success has been destroyed. So I am asking the Lord for a better way to make a living because all we see is drug dealing and killings. The color of our skin has made us villains. Where the prison is the new plantation and the lack of education is our limitation. They attacked the laws of segregation, fighting the rights that were supposed to make us equals.
[Chorus]
I am asking us to wake up, stand up, and fight. I am asking to dream the dreams that our ancestors gave up their lives for. We need to wake up before it's too late, and there won't be a tomorrow!
So, stand up, and let's make this world a better place for us all
[Verse 2]
We have to learn to love each other. We have to learn to pick each other up and stop hating each other because we don't look like each other, but we all know that we bleed like each other and God made us all the same, but for some reason, we have stopped using our brains, letting the rich tell the non rich how we should love, how we should view our nation black, white , brown and yellow and how we should not love each other, how we are not the same. Listen to the alarm and wake up
[Chorus]
I am asking us to wake up, stand up, and fight. I am asking to dream the dreams that our ancestors gave up their lives for. We need to wake up before it's too late, and there won't be a tomorrow!
So, stand up, and let's make this world a better place for us all
[Outro]
So wake up , stand up, and open up your mind , your heart, and your soul, and let's love each other . Together, we can make America great for the first time for all gods people. All we have to do is just wake up..........free our people
